Can the screen block sunlight to prevent glare on a computer screen?

I believe so. We currently use it to hide storage items from view and it does a very nice job of that, you cannot see through the screen sections at all, so, I think it would block sunlight glares on a computer screen as well. It's truly a very nice addition to our office.

I would think that it would. While you would still see the sunlight filtering through, it should be "thick" enough to help with glare. We have a nightlight behind the screen and it looks nice at night with the light behind...

It is an excellent diffuser of sunlight but not an absolute blocker. I think it should sufficiently reduce the glare from sunlight.

Yes it can so long as the sunlight isn't coming in fro higher than 5 feet which is about the overall height of the screen. I found mine to be quit useful.

It will block any glare you may have but it will still allow light into a room. I used it once to block some sunlight while reading and my neighbors thought it looked great.

You won't notice glare from end table lamps etc, it's only direct sunlight from a window that is a issue. I have a 50 inch plasma in our living room with very large picture windows to the right of it and with the blinds open on a sunny day if direct sun rays hit the screen it's hard to see those areas where the sun light hits. Close the blind and no problem. The picture of a plasma destroys all LCD screens, the only issue is it uses more power, but even that is not huge deal, we don't have it on all day, a bit in the morning and a few hours at night.

No-this screen does nothing for the sun....even with that said, I HIGHLY recommend it!!!!!!

It blocks out maybe around 15-20% of the light from the screen when viewed perpendicularly from the screen. Its main use is to deter nosy eyes from the sides. If 15% reduction of glare from the screen is good enough for you, then it probably gives u a 2 in 1 deal. ;)

It reduces glare, but doesn't completely get rid of it. How well it does in the sun depends on your device.

not really. cuts glare on glass surface but doesnt do anything for over all screen fade out that seems to appear in sunlight.

Yes Jack, the LCD screen works great even in bright sunlight as long as you are not wearing polarized sunglasses while using it. The 3 inch LCD screen is awesome!

The slats on this screen are close enough together to block a lot of sunlight, but not all. Hope this helps.

Mine has an anti glare screen but in more intense settings say florescent or extreme sun say outside a coffee shop in the sun it has glare issues. Not really sure that you can get much better though considering.

This monitor has a matte finish on the screen, so the glare is minimal, even in very bright conditions. However, as with all monitors, it's best to not have a bright light source directly behind it, particularly the sun. I use this in a room that gets really bright afternoon sun, and the screen shows just fine. The wall on which this monitor is located is perpendicular to the wall with the window, so the sun does not actually hit the screen. For your use, this monitor will be more than sufficient.

I don't believe there is any anti-glare coating on the screen. However the IPS LED is so bright and clear it's hard to tell. I do notice sometimes reflections from my living room lights into the screen, and direct sunlight will reduce visibility.

I would not think so. The glasses are designed to protect the eyes from UV light and computers do not give off UV lighting, not that I know of. I hope this helps.

By coincidence, I have morning sunlight facing the monitor at an angle through my kitchen wiindow right now as I type this, and I can see it just fine. However, you do need to be aware that direct sunlight is not any monitor's friend. If you can, always try to position a monitor away from a window. Even the best of them will have their spots where glare can distract you.

I live on Florida and this screen protector will have not effect against sun light, you might want to look into a anti glare screen protector.

no glare, light adjustable, sure, but don't expect the same comfort you would have reading a paper book or e-ink reader (ie black on white) on the beach. I'm always questioning the use of these modern color screens retina or else under the outdoor sun for long periods of time. They're at their best indoor where light is either artificial or dimmed
